SECTION III: TEST PROCEDURES AND RESULTS
DROP TESTS Taped Top & Taped Bottom Flaps
TEST INFORMATION TEST CRITERIA
TEST CONTENTS: Methanol/Water Solution (0.967 SG) For packaging containing liquid, each packaging does not leak.
There can be no damage to the outer packaging likely to adversely affect safety during transport. Inner receptacles, inner packagings or articles must remain completely within the outer packaging and there must be no leakage of the filling substance from the inner packaging.
Any discharge from a closure is slight and ceases immediately after impact with no further leakage.
No rupture is permitted in packagings for materials in Class 1 which would permit spillage of loose explosive substances or articles from the outer packaging.

Comments/Observations
Following the stack test there was no leakage or damage likely to result in failure of the packaging.
STACKING STABILITY TEST SET-UP & RESULTS
Results CRITERIA FOR PASSING THE TEST
PASS
In guided load tests, stacking stability must be assessed after test completion.
Two filled packagings of the same type must be placed on the test sample.
The stacked packages must maintain their position for one hour.
(§178.606)
For stack stability, TEN-E places the filled samples one on top of the other. The bottom sample is rotated to the top until all three samples have been subjected to stacking stability for one hour each.
